Hello!
I have a web-site, part of which is in Russian and another part in English.
English and Russian parts are located in different directories. The 
web-site is static.

I want to create a PHP file, which redirects the user from /index.php to 
/ru/index.html, when his primary language is Russian and to 
/en/index.html, when his primary language is non-Russian.

In other words:
?php
if ($languageRussian)
{
header(Location: http://dapissarenko.com/ru/index.html;);
}
else
{
header(Location: http://dapissarenko.com/en/index.html;);
}
exit;
?
How can I determine user's primary language?
Thanks!
dap
I don't think it's possible. You can, however, ask the user to select 
which language he wishes to see, then store that option in a cookie so 
he doesn't have to do it every time he visits the site.

Hi,
  You may try a ip locator and then guess for users country.
IN this way you can design your programme to treat users from Russia to
Russian language etc.
